He also disclosed that the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) objected to Ahsan’s candidacy owing to his remarks passed in recent months over the Panama Papers case and the ailment of Begum Kulsoom Nawaz.

He also said that if the opposition remained divided then the ruling Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s candidate Dr Arif Alvi will benefit and would sail through the election process smoothly.

Fazl, Ahsan and PTI’s Arif Alvi have submitted their nomination papers for the presidential elections and if the opposition fails to field a joint candidate, Alvi’s victory would be a sure shot development.
